Title: Fishing luminary
Inventor: LEE KUN JI
IPC: A01K91/03
Filed: 2001-02-15
Abstract: Described is a fishing luminary having a luminescent chemical sealed in a transparent or semitransparent tube and another luminescent chemical sealed in a glass ampoule that is contained in the tube so that the two luminescent chemicals are normally separated from each other but mix and react to create luminescence when the tube is bent sufficiently to break the glass ampoule. The tube has a clip provided with gripping means at or towards an end thereof and an opening to the clip by which a fishing line is inserted into the clip to be gripped by the gripping means. The tube also has an integral elastic projection extending across the opening to the clip and partially overlapping with the clip so that even if the fishing line is pulled out of the gripping means of the clip the fishing line cannot inadvertently pass back through the opening and such a separation of the luminary from the fishing line is prevented.
